President. Hinckley, the leader of Mormonism, was being totally honest and told the truth; Mormons do not worship the traditional Jesus Christ who is described in the Bible, the Holy Word of God. They worship a false Christ as proclaimed and taught by Joseph Smith, who, according to Hinckley “knew more of the nature of God than all the learned ministers of the gospel of the ages”... if you believe that, there is a bridge in Brooklyn I would like to sell you.

When did you buy the bridge, and why do you want to sell it. How about telling the truth about what the President said. He speaks of how people interpret the writings and how they and you believe what your profits say about how the bible should be understood. You have to believe someone had the spirit of God and Christ, even if it is you, to believe your understanding is right. Then you act the way you believe your profit says you should. It is your actions that make up the the traditional Jesus Christ.

First off it is "prophet" not "profit", secondly, President Hinckley was directly addressing the fact that genuine Christians accuse Mormons and Mormonism of NOT worshiping or following the traditional Christ of the Bible and Christianity, to which your so-called prophet/President Hinckley freely admitted that that accusation was/is in deed correct, Mormons do not worship or follow the Christ of the Bible or of Christianity but another/false christ of Joseph Smith's imaginings:

Geneva, Switzerland, June 6, 1998. The Deseret News reported: "In bearing testimony of Jesus Christ, President Hinckley spoke of those outside the Church who say Latter-day Saints do not believe in the traditional Christ.

'NO, I DON'T. The traditional Christ of whom they speak is NOT THE CHRIST OF WHOM I SPEAK. For the Christ of whom I speak has been revealed in this the Dispensation of the Fullness of Times.' " (Deseret News, Church News section, Salt Lake City, Utah, week ending June 20, 1998, p. 7 Emphasis mine)

Mr Hinkley spoke the truth and has not retracted his comments that Mormons worship and follow another, different Jesus than the one found in the Bible, procalaimed throughout history and followed by genuine Christians throughout the world. Having both studied Mormonism and taught Christology, I can tell you that he is correct in his assessment.
